The original purpose of this expensive call is to prevent a long queue of requests from blocking other work. The cond_resched() call is unnecessary after just a single send operation. For longer queues, instead of invoking the kernel scheduler, simply release the transport send lock and return to the RPC scheduler.

Replace a dprintk() with a tracepoint. The tracepoint marks the point where an RPC request is assigned an XID. Additional clean up: Remove trace_xprt_enq_xmit, which reports much the same thing. That tracepoint was added for debugging commit 918f3c1f ("SUNRPC: Improve latency for interactive tasks").

Current behaviour: every time a v3 operation is re-sent to the server we update (double) the timeout. There is no distinction between whether or not the previous timer had expired before the re-sent happened. Here's the scenario: 1. Client sends a v3 operation 2. Server RST-s the connection (prior to the timeout) (eg., connection is immediately reset) 3. Client re-sends a v3 operation but the timeout is now 120sec. As a result, an application sees 2mins pause before a retry in case server again does not reply. Where as if a connection reset didn't change the timeout value, the client would have re-tried (the 3rd time) after 60secs.

When mounting fsdax pmem device, commit 6180bb44 ("dax: fix detection of dax support for non-persistent memory block devices") introduces the stack overflow [1][2]. Here is the call path for mounting ext4 file system: ext4_fill_super bdev_dax_supported __bdev_dax_supported dax_supported generic_fsdax_supported __generic_fsdax_supported bdev_dax_supported The call path leads to the infinite calling loop, so we cannot call bdev_dax_supported() in __generic_fsdax_supported(). The sanity checking of the variable 'dax_dev' is moved prior to the two bdev_dax_pgoff() checks [3][4].

DM was calling generic_fsdax_supported() to determine whether a device referenced in the DM table supports DAX. However this is a helper for "leaf" device drivers so that they don't have to duplicate common generic checks. High level code should call dax_supported() helper which that calls into appropriate helper for the particular device. This problem manifested itself as kernel messages: dm-3: error: dax access failed (-95) when lvm2-testsuite run in cases where a DM device was stacked on top of another DM device.

The K210 doesn't implement rdtime in M-mode, and since that's where Linux runs in the NOMMU systems that means we can't use rdtime. The K210 is the only system that anyone is currently running NOMMU or M-mode on, so here we're just inlining the timer read directly. This also adds the CLINT driver as an !MMU dependency, as it's currently the only timer driver availiable for these systems and without it we get a build failure for some configurations.

The Kendryte K210 SoC CLINT is compatible with Sifive clint v0 (sifive,clint0). Fix the Kendryte K210 device tree clint entry to be inline with the sifive timer definition documented in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/timer/sifive,clint.yaml. The device tree clint entry is renamed similarly to u-boot device tree definition to improve compatibility with u-boot defined device tree. To ensure correct initialization, the interrup-cells attribute is added and the interrupt-extended attribute definition fixed. This fixes boot failures with Kendryte K210 SoC boards. Note that the clock referenced is kept as K210_CLK_ACLK, which does not necessarilly match the clint MTIME increment rate. This however does not seem to cause any problem for now.
